Would these work? On the FEForum I replied they were 1957 but looked at the EBay ad and that stated 55-56.
I know they're not E475 but would they fit? They are available to loan.

Thanks for the offer, but those are for the earlier Lincoln 317/368. The MEL uses perimeter bolts to hold the cover down, like an FE.

Those embossed Lincoln covers usually bring some good coin... Scrub lovers use them to disguise their bland ordinary engines and make people think they are coloring outside the lines by putting a Lincoln in their ride
